Tell us about shooting this gun:

Initially the trigger pull was extremely hard to pull. With practice it has gotten easier.

How does it fit your hand, how do you like the sights, how difficult is it to rack the slide, how would you describe the trigger pull, and how would you describe the recoil?

The revolver is a small subcompact and fits my hand well. I have crimson trace laser grips but I need to adjust the sights! There is very minimum recoil due to the low caliber. The trigger pull was very hard at first, I had to use two fingers.

How reliable is it? Shoots every time! With a revolver you don’t have to worry about any malfunctions that pistols can incur.

Any problems with any type of ammunition?

No problem and I have used several different brands. Finding ammo can be hard though.

Does this gun have any specific ammunition requirements? If so, please explain: None.

What do you dislike about shooting this gun, if anything? I like shooting it.

Was it easy to take down and clean? Very easy. No parts to disassemble

Would you recommend this gun? Yes

For someone considering this gun, what would you tell them?

It is hard to conceal on a small person. I am 5’2″ and weigh 106 lbs and I need to wear bulky sweatshirts even with an IWB holster
